SUMMARY:Future of Global North-Global South cooperation in a post-aid world
DESCRIPTION:From 3-4 September 2025\, Peace Direct invites local activists\, changemakers\, organizers\, healers\, and peacebuilders to a two-day online conversation on the ‘Future of Global North-Global South cooperation in a post-aid world’. \nThe January 2025 USAID stop-work order has disrupted global development efforts\, closing hundreds of projects and threatening vital services\, particularly in the Global South. While collective responses have mostly been reactive and Global North-driven\, many in the Global South see this crisis as an opportunity to challenge entrenched power imbalances in the sector. \nUsing Platform4Dialogue\, the consultation will bring together Global South actors and their allies to reflect on recent adaptations\, explore transformative opportunities\, and reimagine equitable collaboration between the Global South and Global North in reshaping the development\, humanitarian\, and peacebuilding system. \nThe findings emerging from the consultation will be validated during an in-person gathering of Global South-based peacebuilders organised by Peace Direct on 13-17 October in Nairobi.  \nPlease complete the form below by Friday 29th of August\, 2025.\nRegister to participate in the consultation here
